A Bernstein-von Mises theorem for smooth functionals in semiparametric models (1305.4482v3)

Published 20 May 2013 in math.ST and stat.TH

Abstract: A Bernstein-von Mises theorem is derived for general semiparametric functionals. The result is applied to a variety of semiparametric problems in i.i.d. and non-i.i.d. situations. In particular, new tools are developed to handle semiparametric bias, in particular for nonlinear functionals and in cases where regularity is possibly low. Examples include the squared $L2$-norm in Gaussian white noise, nonlinear functionals in density estimation, as well as functionals in autoregressive models. For density estimation, a systematic study of BvM results for two important classes of priors is provided, namely random histograms and Gaussian process priors.
